My Pocket Pony

If 16h can be considered a "pony."

"Hey! Mom's here."

"I'm coming, I'm coming!"

Poor girl is like me; when the wind picks up she has problems with allergies/sinuses, hence the weepy eye and kinda drippy nose.

"Even when I'm sweaty and have a dirty nose, I'm still pretty darn cute!"

I'm not sure if I posted these, but here's a couple from this past Summer/Fall.

Yeehaw!

My favorite, although I had to unbuckle part of the reins because she decided she wouldn't ground tie that day. lol

Alright, last one...

Water-wings, snorkel, goggles, beach towel, and pigtails in the forelock. What can I say, the mare's a saint!

(Man, I'd love to get her into a costume class. lol)

Awww, what a pretty girl! Tell her I get a drippy nose in the cold, too - it's not allergies, technically. It's called vasomotor rhinitis. So whenever I go out to shovel snow, like I did twice today, there's a packet of kleenex in my pocket.

"Vasomotor rhinitis may result in a runny nose, post-nasal drip and/or nasal congestion. It is caused by a number of triggers, including temperature changes, changes in weather and humidity, as well as strong odors, perfumes and smoke. Since vasomotor rhinitis doesn't get better with antihistamines, people with this syndrome tend to suffer."

That's from "Daniel More, MD, About.com Guide to Allergies"

Summer can be a pony if she wants to! Aw I know what allergies are like, I have them too! At least you are somewhere semi warm! Back at the barn I used to work at, they have a few feet of snow!

Anyway, I think Summer is absolutely gorgeous! I never used to like paints too much, until a certain stubborn paint pig came into my life.

Now I just have this soft spot for them.
